The boot method uses the cross-compiler and temp system to build the  
utils for booting, and so pkg-config is not installed.
We set variables to what pkg-config would result and when building  
e2fsprogs, set PKG_CONFIG=true.

for udev, we set the proper variables, it would use pkg-config as well.

We install util-linux which provides uuid and blkid.
Then we install e2fsprogs and not use the private uuid and blkid  
provided by e2fsprogs.
Then there is shadow and udev. Going through the process in my head  
without looking at the book.

Only the multilib book is having issues and that's what we are looking  
at right now.


Sincerely,

William Harrington
